You know what really cheeses me off? Besides calling stuff that isn't cheese, cheese?
I had airline miles that were either turning into magazines or evaporating, so I started getting Time. The publication is unbelievably turgid and then this ->
With the primaries in full swing now, the rhetoric has gotten very hot, some of which is good and much of which is bad, very bad. Barring any significant change, it is almost assured that the Republican nominee will be Donald Trump. The specter of a "proto-fascist" such as Trump being nominated by one of the two major political parties is frightening.
| Happy Pi Day |
| Today’s number is 14, but I’ll throw in some Pi first |
| Pi is sometimes approximated as 22/7, giving it a link to 14 via the link between 1/7 and 1/14 to be discussed later |
| BUT! Pi, like modern politics, is irrational, it never ends. |

Good Morning to all, on today's Open Thread.
First off I want to thank JTC for the opportunity to have one of the Open Threads here at C99. I know that I'm one of the Junior Members here, at least as far as sheer chronology goes, so the chance to write on a regular basis for a site I love is a real treat.
Some news, opinion and tunes to start your day.

Good Morning, 99%'ers! Welcome to Mundane Wednesday. Well, this Wednesday is not so mundane after Bernie Sanders' stunning upset victory in Michigan. No one, I mean no one, saw this coming. Let's hope that momentum continues for Sanders and his message.
Otherwise, sometimes it gets a little muddy out there.

Welcome to c99p new members! Of the 99, by the 99 and for the 99. This site was built from open source software and I like to think of us as an open source community. It was built with volunteer labor using free software and is financed by contributions from community members. Someone had to build the site and maintain it, that's where I come in, I supply the platform to work on, you folks supply the content. This is not my site, this is our site.
I got back from one of my not so uncommon hiatuses and C99 was a hopping. It was good to see the other virtual drifters, hobos and nerr do wells hopping onto the C99 train. I am the diarist formerly known as NCTim and I shall be your sporadic host this fine day.
For the uninitiated, I work pretty hard to keep my diaries content free. I like to let loose a stream of consciousness that is easier to follow if you are demented or inebriated.
Good Morning 99%'ers!
